General Precautions - Lenovo Thinkpad X131e Chromebook Policy Handbook

General Precautions:

● No food or drink is allowed next to your Chromebook while it is in use.
● Cords, cables, and removable storage devices must be inserted carefully into the
Chromebook.
● Students should never carry their Chromebook while the screen is open unless directed
to do so by a teacher.
● Chromebooks should be shut down when not in use to conserve battery life.
● Chromebooks should never be shoved into a locker or wedged into a book bag as this
may break the screen.
● Do not expose your Chromebook to extreme temperature or direct sunlight for
extended periods of time. Extreme heat or cold may cause damage to the laptop.
● Always bring your laptop to room temperature prior to turning it on.
Carrying the Chromebook:
The protective sleeves will only provide basic protection and should be used during storage
including transporting and any other time the Chromebook is not in use. It is not designed to
prevent damage from drops or abusive handling. Carrying the Chromebook in a padded
backpack or padded bookbag is acceptable provided the backpack or bookbag is handled with
care. For example, you shouldn't toss the bag or drop the bag if your Chromebook is inside.
Screen Care:
The Chromebook screen can be damaged if subjected to rough treatment. The screens are
particularly sensitive to damage from excessive pressure on the screen.
● Do not place anything in the carrying case that will press against the cover. THIS
INCLUDES THE CHARGING CABLE. DO NOT KEEP POWER CORD FOR YOUR
CHROMEBOOK INSIDE THE PROTECTIVE SLEEVE WITH THE CHROMEBOOK.
● Do not lean on top of the Chromebook.
● Do not place anything near the Chromebook that could put pressure on the screen.
● Do not poke the screen.
● Do not place anything on the keyboard before closing the lid (e.g. pens, pencils,
notebooks).
● Clean the screen with a soft, dry anti-static micro-fiber cloth. Do not use window
cleaner or any type of liquid or water on the Chromebook. You can also purchase
individually packaged pre-moistened eyeglass lens cleaning tissues to clean the screen.
These are very convenient and relatively inexpensive.
